I'm confused about the implementation. I would expect pvid field in
net_bridge_port and adding a tag if it isn't there on ingress path.
The rest would be just like without PVIDs. But here you pvid field to
net_port_vlans, and don't do anything with it in receive nor transmit
path. Does it work? What am I missing?

Found the answer in next patch (you should merge #5 and #6). Still,
the implementation looks overly complicated. If you force the packet
to canonical form on ingress (keeping outer tag in skb->vlan_tci, and
setting skb->vlan_tci = pvid if there is no tag) the code should get
simpler.

It was split for incremental testing. #5 added the ability to set and
delete it without impacting anything. #6 added the actual work that
pvid does.

What if there is no outer tag? That's what the ingress code is doing.
If there is no outer tag, pvid is written to vlan_tci. If there was
outer tag in vlan_tci, it's left alone. This way at the end of ingress
vlan_tci is always set.
At egress, we grab that tag and compare it against pvid if any. If it
matches, it's stripped. If it doesn't, we output with the tag thus
adding the header.
The only thing I can simplify is grab the tci directly at egress, but
that's what the code will do anyway.

BTW, you implement three features: VLAN filtering, PVID handling,
per-VLAN FDB. Yet there are 10 patches that mix and match parts of the
implementation. It's really hard to review this when you have to jump
between patches to understand whats going on. I don't know what the
best split would be, but I got the feeling that this is not the
presented one.

Or maybe some cheating to save unconditional vlan_untag()ging: since
vlan_tci is used only when vlan_tx_tag_present() returns true, we can
cache VID there for the bridge code when VLANs are not HW-accelerated.
I'm not sure of this one as I don't know if the netfilter part keeps
vlan_tci intact (quick grep suggests it does).
... br_allowed_input(..., struct sk_buff **pskb)
{
skb = *pskb;
if (!vlan_tx_tag_present(skb)) {
if (!__vlan_get_tag(skb, &skb->vlan_tci))
skb->vlan_tci &= VLAN_VID_MASK;
else
skb->vlan_tci = 0;
}
if (!skb->vlan_tci && pvid & VLAN_TAG_PRESENT) // FIXME:
802.1p-tagged is put in VLAN 0
skb->vlan_tci = pvid;
return check_vlan_allowed(skb, skb->vlan_tci & VLAN_VID_MASK);
}
struct sk_buff *br_handle_vlan(..., struct sk_buff *skb)
{
/* we guaranteed in br_allowed_input() that all packets processed
/* in bridge code will be like received with NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_RX
* feature enabled or have VID cached in vlan_tci without
* VLAN_TAG_PRESENT bit set. */
if ((skb->vlan_tci & VLAN_VID_MASK) | VLAN_TAG_PRESENT != pvid)
return skb;
if (!vlan_tx_tag_present(skb)) {
skb = vlan_untag(skb);
if (!skb)
return skb;
}
skb->vlan_tci = 0; // FIXME: what about 802.1p?
return skb;
}

vlan_untag typically already happens for non-accelerated packets, so no
need to call it again. We shouldn't really be touching accelerated
packets at ingress, because we may have to undo what we've done on
egress. That would be very expensive in case of flooding.

This doesn't work for when you should be sending a tagged frame to the
bridge device when receive was non-accelerated. It would mean that the
802.1q header was already stripped, and you have to put it back
correctly so that it can go through the vlan interface (think vlan on
top of bridge).

I've tried to separate them as well as I can. I guess the only ones out
of order are 11 and 12. 12 is last on purpose since its contentious and
can be easily dropped from the end. I can and should move 11 in with
main vlan filtering code. Essentially 1-5 would be VLAN filtering, 5 &
6 would be PVID, and the rest would FDB.
If you can see a better breakdown, I would appreciate it.
